 Butternomics: A New Culture Podcast about Atlanta

  I'm excited about this new iHeart podcast because it's about Atlanta, where I lived for 11 years. It is the hub of culture and commerce in the South.

iHeartPodcasts and Butter ATL, an Atlanta-based media company, announced the launch of Butternomics: The Business of Culture Podcast, a new series that will offer unique cultural business insights through an Atlanta lens. The first episode was released on July 30.

Hosted by Brandon Butler, the founder and CEO of Butter.ATL,"Butternomics: The Business of Culture Podcast” will bring together creatives, business owners, entrepreneurs, designers, and more to share their insights and strategies, making it an invaluable resource for anyone looking to grow existing businesses or cultivate new, fresh ideas.

"Atlanta influences everything," says Butler, who has built and launched multiple seven-figure brands that use culture to create impactful and relevant businesses. "We believe that Atlanta's chief export is culture. While our podcast is based in Atlanta, it's not limited to this city. We're bringing in guests from all over the country—and potentially the world—who have built culture-focused businesses. Our goal is to provide our audience with the tools they need to learn and grow from the experiences of others who have done amazing things."

New episodes of "Butternomics: The Business of Culture Podcast” will be available on Tuesdays and Thursdays everywhere podcasts are heard.

Brace yourself for the Paranormal podcast Haunting

 Lauren Lapkus first gained notoriety in the Netflix series Orange Is The New Black in 2013 and won The Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast (or Ensemble) in a Comedy Series. Since then, she's been a constant presence on TV, from Star Trek Lower Decks to The Big Bang Theory.

In the paranormal podcast Haunting, host Lauren Lapkus plays Theresa (Teh-rez-ah), a dead “influencer” in purgatory who takes it upon herself to share the stories of those dead with the living.

The podcast, which launched on July 9, sees Lapkus play Therésa, a dead influencer from the “other side.” Believing that nothing says lifeless like a paranormal podcast hosted by a mere mortal, Lauren AKA Therésa presents real first-hand accounts and immersive audio to bring listeners face to face with the unexplainable. 

Sharing actual stories of the weird and deadly each week through the lens of a comedic character, this podcast is for fans of all things spooky to check out.

Brace yourself for new tales from beyond the grave every Tuesday.
